Mumbai New York Scranton by Tamara Shopsin

Best known for her witty, sparse illustrations, and as a cook beside her mischievous father in her family's iconic Manhattan restaurant, in Mumbai, New York, Scranton Tamara Shopsin chronicles a year in her life when impermanence was the theme. Told in a refreshingly original voice that alternates between tender and brazen, Shopsin recounts her trip to the Far East with her sidekick husband and the harrowing adventure that unfolds after returning home.

Blending humor, love, and suspense--and featuring photographs by Jason Fulford--Mumbai, New York, Scranton reveals and inspires a kaleidoscope of emotions. Shopsin's surprising and affecting tale is guaranteed to keep you on the edge of your seat.

Tamara Shopsin is an illustrator and graphic designer whose work has appeared in publications such as The New York Times, Good, Time, Wired, and Newsweek. Jorge Luis Borges, Charles Lindbergh, and Vladimir Nabokov are among the authors for whom she has produced book jackets. C is le Pied!, a collection of her drawings, has been published in two volumes. In her spare time, she develops and sells novelty items and cracked eggs at Shopsip's, her family's New York restaurant. She is presently a 2012 fellow with Code for America, a non-profit organization.
